Truflation Prizes

Challenge statements Prize structure Category Math

To qualify for the Truflation award, build any solution using Truflation data: inflation, category price indexes, housing data, NFT indexes, consumer sentiment and commodities data, FIFA soccer data (coming soon), and the Defi Llama data we’ve put on the chain. You can use multiple chains that our data is compatible with: Ethereum, Polygon, Avalanche, and BnB Chain.

To build other solutions: white hack our data, create infrastructure solutions to index, store, retrieve, validate, and compute data, please consult our team on Truflation Telegram and Discord.

Upon request, we can put additional data on the chain for the builders to use during the hackathon and qualify for the award, if possible. Contact us
